AGE X767
I dont know who I am... I dont know who my parents are... i dont know where i am... or what i am supposed to do... i am but a mere child... an orphan with no family .
my name... i know it ! it was what everyone called me , its meralio , yes thats me . and this is only the begining of a long tale a tale whos future is unkown to me , so sit tight and lets listen to it together!
NO POV
It was a late at night ,the snow was thick and the cold was unbearable everyone but the gaurds of the village gate were inside next to a fire to keep themselves warm
the sign at the gate read in big bold letters "EUGEORA" . Eugeora was a small village located on the side of a mountain , the village was very prosperous in the warmer times but when the cold came , with it came starvation and disease.
it was believed that this was because the founder of the village had died during this time of the year due to some of the villagers wanting control of the village a long time ago and so because of the sins of those that came before them , the villagers suffered.
A cold gust of wind blowed as it pushed a little figure to the snow on the ground , the figure quickly got up and tried to warm up again by rubbing its hands together , this figure was nothing more then a little boy of the age of 2 , the boy shook furously in the cold as he walked to a door and knocked on a door nearby. The door opened and out came a dark skinned man with a large bushy beard who looked very ill ,the boy tried to speak to him but as soon as he had seen the boy the man slammed the door and shouted from inside "OH GREAT SPIRIT OF ICE!EUGEO! FORGIVE US AND LEAVE MY HOME ALONE AND FREE OF DISEASE!"
The little boy turned around and walked away , he walked and walked until he found a small roofless abandoned house with only a little shelter in one corner he quickly got in and fell unconcious.
Now you might be wondering as to why no one helped a small boy in need, this is because 2 years ago when a man found the boy by a tree in the woods he brought him home and took him in as a son ,and who wouldnt it was only a baby. The winter of that year a great sickness came on the man's family and his wife and children and all died but the small orphan boy.
the people of the village then shuunned the boy as he was considered to be the spirit of one of the killers of the founder of the village:Eugeo. The killer in question was called Meralio ,and so they gave him that name , the little boy didnt even know his right from his left and only thought that this was normal , but sometimes he too wanted to be in a house , next to a fire ,with a bunch of food. The only thing that kept him from dying was the dreams of someone with scarlet hair like his , someone in the same conditions as him and so he did all he could to be brave and live all alone in this cruel world.
But unknown to him this would be his final night in this town...
As he slept on in the cold, unknown to him in his little corner, there was a lot happening outside , there were people running here and there for thier lives as they were now under attack by what seemed to be men dressed in long cloaks and masks . There were houses on fire , corpses everywhere and blood splatered on walls and the ground here and there.
A man was running from a group of cloaked figures with masks along with his son , they turned a corner and were met by a dead end , he sheilded his son and stood between the armed cloaked figures his arms wide open
"Papa what's happening where is momma!?" the little boy yelled in fright "who are they?" the man looked at the figures closing in and quickly sliced at thme with what seemed to be a dagger he was hiding in his shirt "UCK!" grunted one of the figures and swung with his own weapon , the man dodged with ease and made easy work of the other man by stabbing him in the back of the neck
"YOU BASTARD!" shouted the other figure as he ran at the man with a balde , the two clashed and the sword of the cloaked figure slashed at the mans chest causing blood to spray out "PAPA NO!" but the man was not yet done he swiftly slashed his own blade and struck home on his opponents head embedding the dagger there and leaving it to fall with the cloaked figure as he fell over .
The man quickly turned around now red with blood on his chest and hands "Listen to me jolly!" the man said as he kneeled in front of his son who terrefied "There is a hidden entrance to the building in front of us through a small passage in the wall, i want you to go in and stay there till this is over yo-" before he could say a thing the other boy was crying aloud into his father's chest "NO PAPA! DONT LEAVE ME ! WE NEED TO FIND MAMA!" the man looked down then made his son look at him by lifting his chin towards his bloody face
"Jolly I and your mama love you very much and want what's best for you... i know this will be very hard on you but be strong and survive , besides i will be waiting for you..." the little boy looked up tears in hiis eyes "promise?" the man looked at his son then frowned and looked around him at the chaos "i will not promise you anything my son but remember if you miss me just know... i will be right here" the man said as he pointed at his son's heart
no sooner as he had done this they heard footsteps and the man quickly forced his son up and pushed him into a small hole in the wall "NO PAPA PLEASE DONT LEAVE ME!" the boy cried to his father , his father turned to him with a single tear on his cheek and smiled "i will never..."
he then pushed a crate in front of the hole to hide it and ran outside the alleyway to come face first with more of the cloaked figures with masks , they ran after him , the man looked back one last time at the hole and then ran as fast as his legs could carry him
"Be strong and remember to always stay happy my son, jolly" he tought as he disappeared into the chaos with the cloaked figures behind him.
MERALIO'S POV
I slowly opened my eyes and started to sit up on the hard floor, my whole body felt sore like always , at this point i had gotten used to the pain . As my vision cleared I noticed the smoke outside and how quite it was , this wasnt normal because everyone here got up early .
I quitely looked outside to see that all the houses were just ash and some debris , i didnt understand what was going on...maybe its some kind of event? No, that cant be right .
I got out and started to walk around the village...now i understand what was up, and it scared me , right in front of me lay corpses of the villagers , men and women . I didnt know what was going on or what or who did this , all i knew was that i was scared so i ran as fast as my little feet could take me .
The fresh snow crunched as i ran through the destroyed village towards the forest to flee from my horrors , it didnt take long for me to leave the village , i looked back to see the burnt down village with black smoke rising from it , this would be the last time i saw eugeora ever again for a very long time.
The little boy ran down the snow covered mountain side through thick forests, steep slopes and many more obstacles , he could still see the dead villagers ,the burnt houses and all the horrors that he had seen .
"why? why me?" he thought "why does everything bad happen to those around me?!" the boy thought as he kept running through the snow , slowly he got tired and decided to sit down and rest up .
As soon as the adrenaline had worn off the boy started crying , he cried hard but without words ,and even if he wanted to he couldnt speak the words cause he didnt know how to speak yet , as tears rolled down his cheeks he thought of the girl that looked like him, the one he kept seeing when he slept "Why ?! Why do we suffer?! WHO ARE YOU?!" he thought as he shouted incoherent things .
He then laid down on the ground and covered himself in his worn out cloak and wept with his legs to his chest, and cried himself to sleep.
-A GIRL WITH SCARLET HAIR HAD HER LEGS TO HER CHEST CRYING IN WHAT SEEMED TO BE A PRISON OF SORTS , SHE CRIED AND CRIED THEN LOOKED AT HER HANDS AND SAID "I DONT KNOW HOW... BUT I PROMISE YOU...WE WILL MEET SOMEDAY...AND THEN ALL WILL BE WELL" SHE SAID WITH A WEAK SMILE "SO KEEP GOING AND STAY STRONG...BROTHER.."-
the sun was setting now on the snow covered forest ,it was quite and cold. The little boy woke up and rubbed his eyes to clear his sight .
"Its weird...i dont understand a thing that anyone else says other then my name, but for some reason...i can understand what she says..." he thought as he looked at his little bruised,dirty and beaten up hands "I wee stay storn..(I will stay strong)" the boy tried to say with the little language he knew.
He got up now realizing how hungry he was , there wasnt really anything to eat around here so he decided to walk around and try and find something . He started walking but didnt realize where he had been sleeping. It was a cliff side, the boy slipped on the snow and started falling down hitting rocks and other things in his way, it was a surprise he was still alive .
as he finally hit the flat ground he slowly got up crying and started to limp away , but before he could even have taken two steps he heard rumbling behing him , what he thought was a big pile of rocks started to move and stood up tall and strong .
It was a terrifying yet majestic beats with a square face and glowing eyes and a pair of wings on its back , it stood 20 ft high and looked to be made completely out of black rocks .
The boy recognized the shape and only one word came to his mind as he looked at the 20 ft high beast in front of him
"Dragon.."
